You are correct - it is in git.  Do you have commit privs there? Steffen
stepped up and handled the libtruth upload so we can just keep it in
pkg-eucalyptus for now until we do the full GWT handover when Chris gets
back.  I'd like to see the updated guava in experimental NOT unstable if
you can arrange having that happen.

Same here, but you are a member of pkg-java no?  You should be able to do
uploads of guava.

Sounds like a good way to tackle it.

Let me know if you can handle the guava stuff and if not, I'll try to get
on pkg-java (which i need to do at some point anyway) and do it myself.

Thanks again!
